AI Engineer & System Orchestrator
I orchestrate AI agents to build software. Plan. Delegate. Test. Ship.
20+ years at the intersection of infrastructure and innovation — from racking servers and writing Perl scripts to architecting cloud-native platforms and leading AI engineering teams. My career has always been about finding leverage: automating the tedious, scaling the impactful, and shipping the ambitious.
Today I'm an AI Engineer / Platform Engineer at Citigroup, building AI-powered tools that transform how a global financial institution operates. I also vibe code — orchestrating Claude Code and autonomous agents through the plan/delegate/test loop. The result: 4–6x more productive than traditional development, with over 2B+ tokens processed each month.
Leading AI engineering initiatives at one of the world's largest financial institutions. Building LLM-powered tools, retrieval-augmented generation systems, and AI agent frameworks for enterprise workflows.
Co-founded and grew a plant-based meal planning brand to hundreds of thousands of subscribers. Built the full technology stack — e-commerce platform, subscription billing, email automation, and content delivery.
Helped startups and mid-size companies modernize infrastructure — migrating to AWS/GCP, implementing CI/CD pipelines, containerizing applications, and building monitoring systems.
Built and maintained production infrastructure across e-commerce, media, and SaaS companies. Deep Linux expertise, network engineering, and the on-call discipline that comes from managing physical data centers.
Started in front-line IT support — troubleshooting hardware, managing Active Directory, and learning that empathy for the end user is the foundation of good engineering.
Fully automated, 100% backpressure pipeline runner for AI workflows. Define multi-step agent pipelines as Graphviz digraphs with built-in tool use, multi-provider LLM support, checkpoint/resume, and verification gates.
Software factory wrapping PAS: registers git repos, runs AI pipelines in isolated worktrees, enforces lint-fix loops, and ships PRs automatically.
Team collaboration plans for AI-assisted development. Prevents massive PRs through structured planning—ship small, ship often with AI agents.
Personal Claude Code plugin providing slash commands, specialized AI agents, and skills to supercharge development workflows.
Window management for macOS. Keyboard-driven window positioning and resizing. A legacy resurrection project brought back to life with AI-assisted development.
Meal planning subscription platform. Full-stack web application powering a plant-based meal planning service with subscription management, recipe delivery, and user accounts.
Content platform and brand site for a plant-based recipe and lifestyle brand. Recipe database, blog, and community hub.
Mobile companion app for Meal Mentor. Meal plans, grocery lists, and recipes on the go for subscribers.
AI-powered fantasy baseball platform with 4 recommendation engines (hot pickups, buy low, injury replacement, streaming pitchers), Yahoo API integration, and a digital twin for off-season testing. Now on its 3rd codebase iteration.
